Spring Cleaning!
Well we’ve made it through another cold, snowy winter ! What a blessing! Spring is here and In the blink of an eye summer will be too! Time to dust off those flip flops and get that body ready for the summer on the inside and out!
I know, I know you hear the same thing over and over, BE HEALTHIER! I say take baby steps and before you know it you’ll be on a better path. Here are a few things you can do to get starte on a fabulous new you!
INSIDE – 3 VERY EASY THINGS!
Drink more water- Yup, you’ve heard it all of your life but the benefits of drinking water will do your body good. Great for cleansing your body and your skin. So just 1 extra bottle or glass this month. Try picking one meal and having water instead of soda. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, you can do it!
Exercise – Oh hear we go again, right? But there’s no way around it, gotta do it! Guess what walking is great exercise, just take a walk and strengthen those muscles. I’m not telling you to run out and join a gym, just walk to the store instead of driving. You’ll be surprised at the results
Eat some fruit – I would say vegetables but I don’t want to overload you, LOL! Fruit is a great start, try to have a piece of fresh fruit every day, how hard is that???
Can we all commit to these 3 things? I think we can! Join us on our facebook page and let us know how you’re doing, even if you eat an extra apple a day, we want to help and encourage you!
OUTSIDE
FEEEEEET! Get them ready cause flip flops are coming and you don’t want to be the last person in socks cause your feet aren’t, um…..ready, LOL! None of us have perfect feet and we’ve spent a life time not letting them be seen but this spring let those dogs out! Try a home pedicure if you aren’t ready to go to get them done professionally. Here’s how:
First make sure that you remove your polish and clip our nails with a nail clipper, not too short just leave about an 1/8 past the top of the toe. Use an emory board and gently file any rough toe nail edges. Run a small basin full of water and add some bubbles and Pooka Bath Oil (It will soften those toes) I also like to throw in some epsom salt and ¼ cup of milk, the lactic acid in the milk softens dead skin, If you really want to make a spa out of it, throw in some roses and just soak. This will do wonders for your feet. After you’re finished soaking use an orangewood stick and push back your cuticles. Use your cuticle clippers and carefully clip your cuticles (You can purchase a good cuticle clipper at any drugstore). After that use an exfoliator I recommend Pooka Sugar Polish of course and gently scrub both feet, put them back in the soak and make sure all of the sugar is off, towel dry and put your foot
butter on! NEW FEET, LOL!!!
My FAVORITE – EXFOLIATE, EXFOLIATE,EXFOLIATE!!
This is the difference between nice skin and glowing skin!!! The benefits of exfoliating are amazing! When you exfoliate you take an entire layer of dead skin off of your body, bye bye! It also stimulates cells to encourage new skin to emerge and thebest part is you see the effects of exfoliationg right away. In the shower cleanse, take a scoop of an exfoliator (pooka sugar polish of course) and massage your entire body, it’s invigorating, then rinse and your skin is left with a coconut sheen! When you towel dry you are soft and smooth as a baby, nothing beats this great spring skin pick me up!
Well those are 5 little things you can do for yourself this week! Don’t forget to join us on our facebook page and let us know how much better you feel, LOL!
